Shrewsberry left a mess!

For those who thought Micah left the Penn State Program in better shape.

On top of that they currently have no committed recruits for 2023.

Happens a lot with coaches leaving.

Look what happened to our 2023 recruiting class when Brohm left. Now, Walters appears to be making up for it in the start of the 2024 class.

New reality of college basketball. Painter warned about the consequences of removing the 1yr penalty for transfers.

NIL and COVID have obviously made it worse.

 

[SCBoiler1]

It was the perfect storm. Top 5 players were seniors. Not much in the Jr or SR classes and then the coach leaves. Freshmen and recruits not vested in the school or program.

This won't be fixed in the next year or two.

By all accounts good coach and man, just thinking staying at PSU longer than two years might have been a better quality move………but that’s not the landscape these days……

 

[goldclub]

He left because he knew the cupboard was bare. Success was based on an old team, never stayed long enough to prove he could build success. I hope he succeeds, but never figured out the whole lore of how great he did.

 

[Boilerfla]

If he left because cupboard was bare, I assume he’s the caretaker who did so………so much for building a program, committing to a school etc…..

 

[Hausta01]

This is a weird thread. Would you stay at a job you would rather not to "build something" and "commit" to that company? Or would you take the job you would rather have?

Edit: Shrewsbury took PSU to its first NCAAT in 12 years and got them their first NCAAT victory in 22, but he should "build something" at a school who clearly doesn't care about basketball? The gave Pat Chambers 8 freaking years to never make the tourney - I thought the tournament was the only thing that mattered?

He won the first NCAA tournament game for the school in over 20 years. That’s all that matters.

 

[Boilerfla]

Oh yes! That’s all that matters…….🥴

some of you need to read the story that was linked to here a couple of weeks ago. He has a life long love of ND football and used to coach somewhere close to SB where he would drive by the arena and wish....

With all of their money, why is the Joyce such a crap hole?

like psu, they don't care much for BBall

 

[TeddyValentineDidNothingWrong]

If Shrews didn't leave this year, he'd be stuck at PSU for another 4 with how young that team would have been. He made the correct decision.

 

[Purdue0023]

Is this chart as bad as it looks? How are they even going to field a team next year?

This. Wrestling is their top winter sport.

IU South Bend. Home of the Titans. It was across the street from my high school

He could have stayed and built the program until they were consistently good enough to lose to double-digit seeds in the tourney every year. Thank goodness Purdue has Painter.
